Check net connectivity on Example files
Check net connectivity on Example files
While testing my PC I found examples with pre-routed boards that show many errors when "Verification/Check net connectivity" is ran. The Banana_Pi.dip and arc_test.dip are the only ones that have no errors, that I have found. The arm.dip has no ground or power layer pours defines so of course shows errors, BGA_autorouter.dip and example_routed.dip show massive errors.

Yeppers. I see the same thing...
BGA_autorouter.dip
There is one DRC gap error that, according to the failure description, should not be flagged as a violation. I reported this a while back. Running the connectivity check reveals a ton of errors, probably due to those missing power plane pours.
example_routed.dip
There are no DRC errors. Running the connectivity check reveals a ton of errors. After updating the copper pours, the error count reduces to two disconnects; a missing trace between IC5(7) and a nearby "GND" via, and a missing trace between IC5(14) and a nearby "3V3" via. Running the autorouter or manually routing the connections will, of course, fix that.
